I'm never a fan of paying such high fuel/taxes, but I also know July is high season. What do you think? I don't pay much attention to flights during the summer because we hardly ever travel during those times...
Thanks!
What kind of "points" are you talking about in each case?
Have you priced a cash ticket on Aer Lingus, rather than a redemption ticket?
